Fear of Server Weather
Why it's common:
Because instances of severe weather are few and far between, children don't have much experience of how to react.
How to overcome it:"Make sure they know what to do if the severe weather happens," Begotka said. Do this by making a map of the house with directions of what to do and where to go.
Dealing with Scared Kids
Pediatric psychologist Andrea Begotka and clinical pyschologist Kathleen Longeway offer tips on how to handle a scared child:
The key to overcomeing a fear is gradual exposure.
This means you shouldn't pressure your child into engaging with their fear immediately, but do so little by little, and at the child's pace. this is the way to help overcome fear of clowns, spiders, dogs, etc.
*Children model their parent's behavior. When a child sees you acting calmlyin a scary situation, he or she will learn to react the same way.
*A security object can be used for multiple fears.
* A fear becomes a phobia when the fear interferes with your child's day-to-day functioning, or if it causes excessive anxiety. If you're concerned, discuss it with your child's pediatrician.

0830 Parents Can Help Kids Get Over Their Fears 空中英語教室
Fear of dogs
Why it's common: this is often because of a bad experience with a dog, but it also happens when children are unfamiliar with dogs. How to overcome it: Begotka said parents should teach their child the proper way to introduce themselves to dogs. Children can turn to the side sightly so if the dog jumps on them, they won't gt hurt. Before petting a dog, the child should hold out his or her hand and allow the dog to sniff it.
Fear of the Dark
Why it's common:" In the dark,they don't know what's in the room with them," Begotka said." Their mind are imaginative at that age, so they can imagine things that are really scary."
How to overcome it: Begotka and Longeway both recommanded a nightlight, a tactic that helped Emily Clearwater when she was afraid of the dark. Begotka and Longeway also recommand giving the child a security object, like a blanket or a teddy bear.
Fear of Needles
Why it's common:"It causes some sort of discomfort," Begotak said. "It's scary to have someone poking something into you." How to overcome it: This is another opportunity for a special security object, which can be given to the child for reassurance. Begotka also suggested distracting a child by talking about something else while the shot is administered, holding the child or telling the child to count how long it takes.

0825 Voyager: Exploring the planets and beyond
On August 25,1981,spacecraft Voyager 2 made its closet approach to Saturn,placing that date in scientific record books. On the same day eight years later, voyager 2 again made history when it made its closet pass by Neptune. It was the first vessel to visit our solar system's mysterious eighth planet.
An ambitious mission
In 1977 NASA launched the unmanned Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft with the goal of exploring Saturn and Jupiter. Voyager 1 would gather information about their atmosphere, interiors, satellites and magnetic fields. The spacecraft reached Jupiter on March 5 1979 ,and then Saturn the following year.
Voyager 1 was able to take approximately 32,000 photos of Jupiter and Saturn, as well as their moons and rings. Voyager 2 had a similar mission, which was later extended to include the exploration of Uranus and Neptune. From the data sent back from the two craft, scientists have discovery ed new moons, active volcanoes and information about the planet's rings. And the Voyager mission continues. What started as an expedition to research the plants past the asteroid belt has grown into a push to explore the edge of the solar system.
Grammar On the Go

VOYAGER: EXPLORING THE PLANETS AND BEYOND
NASA aims for the final frontier
Voyager 1 and 2 are now much further from the sun than Pluto. Voyager 1 speeds away at about 38,000 mph while Voyager 2 cruises along at a more relaxing 35,000 mph. They continue to receive radio signals from Earth, but the transmissions take about 16 hours to arrive traveling at the speed of light. Last December, NASA reached a new milestone when Voyager 1 entered the edge of the solar system. However, it will be another four years or so before it passes into interstellar space.
Scientists hope to collect data from it for five more years after it leaves the solar system before its power source runs out. Although it is traveling in a different direction. Voyager 2 will leave the solar system in a few years as well. Both Spacecraft have far surpassed anything scientists dared speculate regarding their original missions. When they were launched, the space age was still fairly young. NASA had no idea how long Voyager 1 and 2 would last, or how successful they would be. Yet they are continuing strong. making extraordinary discoveries beyond scientists' expectations.
More INFORMATION
Voyager 1 and 2 carry a gold plated record that contains 115 images of life on Earth; various audio clips of nature- like the ocean.birds, whales, and thunder;song from different cultures and eras; printed messages from a former U.S. Predident and UN Secrectary General, and spoken greeting in 55 different languuages. These discs give a glimpse of our life on earth. Will anybody or anything ever find them?
The frontier between these two borders is guarded by armies from both countries.
The trandmission of the show was interrupted by the emergency announcement.
Transmission of the disease can be prevented by vaccine.
Some magazines have been spectulating that the couple will get married this fall.
People are speculating on the reasons why the actor suddelny quit the role.
